Review: Woody Allen's love affair with France, dating back decades, finds its target with Midnight in Paris, the latest brochure Allens Paris, which recently premiered at the Cannes Film Festival on Wednesday. The good news is that Allen seems to mind in a way that it has always done in recent films, and found a way for his often caustic misanthropy, to channel half-comic fear of death and bitter anti-American comics in the pleasant whim. The nominal point of Midnight in Paris is that we all need to make the best of life while in our own time the longing for a past that probably never existed. If anything, Allen seems to be reprimanded himself, ever so slightly, for his compulsive romanticism, his obsession with the past and his separation from contemporary American life. All cooked in a Parisian dessert, airy, with just a sentimental feeling of substance in the finish. One of his best films in his later years. |
